Straight Face

Rue FerruceThe Châtelet (which means "little castle") is the fort giving access to the Pont d'Avignon (St Bénezet Bridge). The old drawbridge which used to protect access to the bridge is still there. This particular tower of the Châtelet looks amazingly like a face...

After six years in Australia and five years of city life in Avignon I moved to the countryside near the small village of Beaumes-de-Venise. Once dedicated to street photography my blog has since taken a more rural note but the beautiful region of Provence is an constant source of inspiration.
